Sensor, Dynamics: Description
NOTE:
If the dynamics sensor is replaced, it must be initialized using a diagnostic scan tool.
The yaw rate, lateral acceleration and longitudinal acceleration sensors are housed in one unit known as the Dynamics Sensor (2). The sensor is used to measure vehicle rotational sensing (how fast the vehicle is turning - yaw), side-to-side (lateral) motion and longitudinal acceleration (forward). The Dynamics Sensor (2) has one wire harness connector (1) and is located in front of the Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC) module (3) on the transmission tunnel under the center floor console.
The internal Yaw and Lateral Acceleration Sensors cannot be serviced separately. The entire Dynamics Sensor must be replaced as a unit.
